Title: Systeme et procede de generation de moyennes et d'intervalles d'essai statistiquement valides pour materiaux de controle qualite

IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2012-03-27
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé d'établissement de moyennes et d'intervalles d'essai statistiquement valides pour matériaux de contrôle qualité, utilisés pour l'homologation d'appareils d'essai médicaux. Ladite méthode fait appel à des essais pratiqués sur un nouveau lot de matériaux de contrôle qualité afin d'établir une moyenne pour l'essai et utilise les données d'une base de données abritant un historique des résultats des essais pratiqués pour établir un intervalle d'essai. Ledit système peut estimer la variabilité des résultats des essais à partir des données relatives à un précédent lot, puis déterminer les bornes de l'intervalle d'essai de façon à ce que l'on puisse s'attendre à ce qu'un nouvel essai pratiqué sur un nouveau lot de matériaux de contrôle qualité s'inscrive dans l'intervalle avec une probabilité donnée. Comme l'historique des données est utilisé pour estimer la variabilité de l'essai, le nombre de nouveaux essais nécessaires pour déterminer une moyenne et un intervalle statistiquement valides peut être fortement réduit, par rapport à ce que l'on observe lorsque l'on établit la moyenne et l'intervalle sur la seule base d'essais pratiqués sur le nouveau lot de matériaux.

Title: Depth/orientation detection tool and methods thereof
Inventor: BLOUNT CURTIS G
IPC: E21B47/024
Filed: 2012-07-02
Abstract: Methods and systems for depth and radial orientation detection are provided. Methods for determining the depth or radial orientation of one or more downhole components include the steps of providing a target mass and a using a detection device for detecting the depth and/or orientation of the target mass. In some cases, the target mass is initially nonradioactive and then, after installing the target mass downhole, it may be irradiated to form a relatively short-lived radioactive target mass, which may then be detected with a radiation detector. In this way, the target mass acts as a depth or radial orientation market. Where the target mass is situated downhole in a known radial relationship to another downhole component, the radial orientation of the other downhole component may be deduced once the radial orientation of the target mass is determined. Advantages include higher accuracies and reduced health, safety, and environmental risks.
